I don’t even have to read past the title to know this is one of the dumbest things that will be posted on the internet today.
there’s more good music now than ever. I can stream all day and constantly hear *NEW* bands that play music I like. I’m 58 and the music scene online is more vibrant than radio or records ever were.

Sure the big labels and mass conglomerates, those greedy and censorious, and incompetent behemoths are nearly dead and good riddance, but the ‘music industry’ is not the entirety of music, actually they are the trailing end, indeed the excrescence of it.
Go to spotify or or Pandora, start with some musicians or bands, or songwriters you like; the world is a heck of a lot bigger, and better, than corporate A&R droids would have one believe.
Yeah, there’s just dozens of Beatles, Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Metallica, Heartbreakers etc. out there that nobody knows about.

The reality is there are a few one-hit wonders. That’s it.
Archies anyone?
Like. :)
I have a few thousand LP’s. I still buy vinyl and occasionally even a new act. The selection of GOOD music today is mind numbing compared to the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s.
Of course, the selection of bad music is even greater. ;)
Remake, yes. Well done? To me, yes.
